Aston Villa boss Dean Smith is not surprised by speculation linking defender Ezri Konsa with a move to Liverpool or Tottenham.
Konsa, signed for £12million from Brentford 18 months ago, has been a standout performer for Villa this season, helping them keep 10 clean sheets in 20 Premier League appearances.
Liverpool and Spurs have both been reported to be monitoring the 23-year-old centre-back, while a senior England call-up has also been mooted.
'Everybody can see that we're having a good season so far and when teams have good seasons players get linked with everybody,' said Smith, whose side play Leicester at Villa Park on Sunday.
